Story
12-11-25 MoMo for short (Marshmellow) is a lovely, wonderful older kitten we took in in June along with his sister. After months of trying to get them adopted as a pair, we split them up when a good home was found for his adorable sister. MoMo is a love, he wants to sit on your lap, and purr. He is only 9 months old so he does like to play and would benefit from other cat-company. He is neutered, tested for diseases and parasites, and vaccinated. PLEASE EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION!

Story
12-11-25 Maggy is a cute, chubby spayed female who had a life for years with a family who decided to up and throw her out. She was taken in by a veterinarian on the island they live on, and she became one of his favorites! She is spayed, up to date on shots and tested for diseases and parasites. She was thought to be 4-5 years old but upon examination by my vet here, looking at her teeth, he presumes her to be not over 3 years old. Maggy is lovely and sweet, wants a lap to lay on and purr and purr. We think she'd make a great only cat for an older person in a quiet setting. PLEASE EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION~!

Meet Millie! She`s a sweet, fluffy orange girl. She`s a bit reserved around strangers, but if you give her a bit of time, she`ll warm up. She likes to be around you, and will be purring before you know it when you say hello. She can`t wait to find her new home - maybe it`ll be with you!

Story
Lucy – Available for Adoption Lucy was one of Joni’s cats. BFF needs to find purr’fect homes for all of Joni’s cats. She was named after one of Joni’s best friends. Lucy is a quiet cat that keeps to herself. In Joni’s words from 2024: “Black cats are awesome but I never had a desire for owning one. Of course doing rescue I've had many black cats and kittens. Love them all but my favorite has always been orange or tabbies. Well at night I sleep with 2 black cats on my bed and one on my bedside table that wants to get on the bed. How the hell did this happen? This is my Lucy Lu. Named after a very wonderful friend of mine who was frightened to death of cats. She too was black and beautiful. She passed away a few years ago about the time I rescued Lucy as a feral kitten and after socializing I couldn't let her go. My friend Lucy would be so proud to know I named my beauty after her. Lucy gets along well with everyone. She doesn't like to be picked up. Only bothers me at night when she flops her big ass self on top of me in bed demanding I pet her. Since Jojo has been gone, she loved Jojo, she at night in bed with us would groom him. Now she has become my new stalker. Nowhere as bad as my Jojo but she now craves more attention. Took over his spot on the table swatting my backside as I'm at the sink. I love this gorgeous black cat. Always have. I sometimes walk around house singing Lucy Lu I love you.” Lucy is approximately 6 years old, spayed, negative for FeLV and FIV and will be up-to-date on her vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting him, contact Boston's Forgotten Felines on Facebook or at catadoptions@bostonsforgottenfelines.org
